windows: add a method to convert Unix style command lines to Windows style...
windows: add a method to convert Unix style command lines to Windows style This started as a copy/paste of `os.path.expandvars()`, but limited to a given dictionary of variables, converting `foo = foo + bar` to `foo += bar`, and adding 'b' string prefixes. Then code was added to make sure that a value being substituted in wouldn't itself be expanded by cmd.exe. But that left inconsistent results between `$var1` and `%var1%` when its value was '%foo%'- since neither were touched, `$var1` wouldn't expand but `%var1%` would. So instead, this just converts the Unix style to Windows style (if the variable exists, because Windows will leave `%missing%` as-is), and lets cmd.exe do its thing. I then dropped the %% -> % conversion (because Windows doesn't do this), and added the ability to escape the '$' with '\'. The escape character is dropped, for consistency with shell handling. After everything seemed stable and working, running the whole test suite flagged a problem near the end of test-bookmarks.t:1069. The problem is cmd.exe won't pass empty variables to its child, so defined but empty variables are now skipped. I can't think of anything better, and it seems like a pre-existing violation of the documentation, which calls out that HG_OLDNODE is empty on bookmark creation. Future additions could potentially be replacing strong quotes with double quotes (cmd.exe doesn't know what to do with the former), escaping a double quote, and some tilde expansion via os.path.expanduser(). I've got some doubts about replacing the strong quotes in case sh.exe is run, but it seems like the right thing to do the vast majority of the time. The original form of this was discussed about a year ago[1]. [1] https://www.mercurial-scm.org/pipermail/mercurial-devel/2017-July/100735.html

Mercurial supports a functional language for selecting a set of
files.
Like other file patterns, this pattern type is indicated by a prefix,
'set:'. The language supports a number of predicates which are joined
by infix operators. Parenthesis can be used for grouping.
Identifiers such as filenames or patterns must be quoted with single
or double quotes if they contain characters outside of
``[.*{}[]?/\_a-zA-Z0-9\x80-\xff]`` or if they match one of the
predefined predicates. This generally applies to file patterns other
than globs and arguments for predicates. Pattern prefixes such as
``path:`` may be specified without quoting.
Special characters can be used in quoted identifiers by escaping them,
e.g., ``\n`` is interpreted as a newline. To prevent them from being
interpreted, strings can be prefixed with ``r``, e.g. ``r'...'``.
See also :hg:`help patterns`.
Operators
=========
There is a single prefix operator:
``not x``
Files not in x. Short form is ``! x``.
These are the supported infix operators:
``x and y``
The intersection of files in x and y. Short form is ``x & y``.
``x or y``
The union of files in x and y. There are two alternative short
forms: ``x | y`` and ``x + y``.
``x - y``
Files in x but not in y.
Predicates
==========
The following predicates are supported:
.. predicatesmarker
Examples
========
Some sample queries:
- Show status of files that appear to be binary in the working directory::
hg status -A "set:binary()"
- Forget files that are in .hgignore but are already tracked::
hg forget "set:hgignore() and not ignored()"
- Find text files that contain a string::
hg files "set:grep(magic) and not binary()"
- Find C files in a non-standard encoding::
hg files "set:**.c and not encoding('UTF-8')"
- Revert copies of large binary files::
hg revert "set:copied() and binary() and size('>1M')"
- Revert files that were added to the working directory::
hg revert "set:revs('wdir()', added())"
- Remove files listed in foo.lst that contain the letter a or b::
hg remove "set: listfile:foo.lst and (**a* or **b*)"
